Golden Knights captain Mark Stone returns to face Senators

LAS VEGAS -- Golden Knights captain Mark Stone, who was off to a hot start before injuring his wrist last month, participated in the morning skate Wednesday and will play for Vegas against the Ottawa Senators.

Stone was placed on injured reserve Oct. 20. He had 13 points in his first six games before getting hurt.

"It's good to have his energy back," coach Bruce Cassidy said. "He's good on the bench. He's a leader. It's just nice to have him back. He makes our team better."

Stone has been skating with the Golden Knights' American Hockey League affiliate in Henderson.
